A slight pause.
"But...no price means the highest price. You don't need anything, just my nod, which means what you want to take from me is more than these."
"..."
The Black Shadow on the Throne fell into silence.
He propped his chin, silently gazing at Gu Shen, somewhat curious about what else this young man might say.
"Interesting, your choice of words."
Gu Shen slowly said, "You just said, 'we' will be crushed by the Storm. Although I escaped with eleven people...in the eyes of a Devil like you, they shouldn't be considered worthy, right? If this were a transaction, then you clearly know that these people's lives aren't worth a weight on the scales."
Gu Shen was very sensitive to every word from this guy.
He vaguely felt something.
The "you" in the mouth of the Black Shadow on the Throne didn't refer to himself and this squad.
But...distant, during the Spiritual Link with Chu Ling.
Then that's very frightening.
How does he know about the existence of "Chu Ling"?
